Matt Hardy Responds To Accusations Of Drinking With Jeff Hardy

AEW

Matt Hardy has responded to accusations that he was drinking with his brother Jeff Hardy before Jeff’s arrest on June 13.

Jeff was arrested at 9:54am on Monday with a blood-alcohol level of 3.7 times the legal limit when driving.

Jeff and Matt were making an appearance together the night before the arrest and Jeff was spotted drinking, which led to people accusing Matt of drinking with him.

Matt has since taken to Twitter with the following response:

Understand your passion on this & agree that DD is unacceptable. I expect speculation from fans, but not you. I haven’t touched a drug in over a decade, haven’t drank since I’ve been a Dad. Saw Jeff last on Sun night & flew early Mon w/@RebyHardy. I can’t be with Jeff every min.

When he said “but not you”, Matt was responding specifically to former WWE talent and trainer Bill DeMott.

Matt’s wife Reby also fired back at people accusing her and Matt of ‘enabling’ Jeff.

Matt and Jeff were removed from tonight’s tag title ladder match on Dynamite, and Jeff has been suspended without pay, and he can only return to AEW upon successfully completing treatment and maintaining his sobriety.

He is due in court on July 5. We’ll continue to keep you covered with any updates.
